Chapter 124 Tiana burst out into laughter when she learned that Sage hadn’t gone through with the divorce. “See? | told you so! lan wouldn't let you go that easily.” Sage roiled her eyes. “Believe it or not, it has nothing to do with lan. He kept his word and signed the divorce papers. But then, things took a surprising turn.” Sage then filled Tiana in on how her aunt stumbled upon the divorce papers.

“My uncle needed lan’s help to seal a deal.” Even though her story sounded plausible, Tiana couldn't shake the feeling that lan was somehow involved.
“Regardless, the fact that you didn’t get divorced only proves my point!” “Wow. With such a wild imagination, perhaps you should quit being a nurse and beca writer instead.” “Hmm... that's a great idea! | could write a titled ‘My Clueless Best Friend Who Can't Seem to Get a Divorce’. Isn't that a great idea?” Sage was rendered speechless. “. On second thought, nursing suits you.” The car arrived in the city while she and Tiana were still chatting. As the sun set, Sage remembered that she had promised Michael to go to the gym that day. Hence, she asked the driver to take her there.
The gym manager spotted her and immediately apologized to her. Behind him was the coach. from last time.

As long as you guys don’t give Michael a hard tin the future, we're good.” “Michael might not be able to work part-tat our gym anymore,” said the manager. “Mrs. Holcomb, would you like to switch to a different coach or get a refund?” “What? Why not?” Sage asked, puzzled. After all, he hadn't said anything about it when they had dinner together yesterday. Surely lan wouldn't hold a grudge against Michael for something so trivial? The manager explained, “He toldhe was going to participate in an audition.” Sage was aware that Michael was going to try out for an upcoming talent show, so it made sense to her.
“Ms. Joyner!” Michael called out from ahead when he spotted her.
Sage walked up to him. “I just heard from the manager that you're going to participate in a talent show. Good luck! Y'all are going to knock it out of the park!” “Haha. No one knows what the future will hold.” He scratched his head sheepishly. “A friend of Kai's introduced us. He contacted us this morning, so we decided to sign up at the last minute. | feel bad, especially since you've booked so many sessions with me...

Sage was dead tired after the session. She reached for her phone as she sipped swater. Why'd you senda video?” “I'm afraid you'll forget, so you have to practice using my video every day.” Looking into Michael's bright, sparkling eyes, Sage suddenly remembered Tiana’s words from yesterday, as well as the way he gazed at her in the picture.
“Michael, do you have a crush on me?” Her phone rang as soon as the words left her mouth. Surprisingly, it was lan calling.
